Photographer Julia Wade and her husband, Jonathan, were photographing butterflies just for fun in our private butterfly zoo when this Monarch landed on Julia’s camera and Jonathan recorded the moment.

I saw this quote which seemed to be a perfect match: “Life is like a camera. Just focus on what’s important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives, and if things don’t turn out – take another shot.”
